Our favorite place to stay in Gatlinburg! While the property is showing its age and the elevators are notoriously slow, the location simply can’t be beat—it’s the best in Gatlinburg in my opinion. We stay here every year, sometimes twice a year. Unfortunately, they’ve recently added a $15-per-night parking fee, which feels unnecessary and disappointing—a way to add extra charges without offering any additional benefit in return. Still, despite that, it remains our favorite place to stay.
